Stepdaughter of a wealthy family? The little darling of a Beijing tycoon

"Since I know nothing about business, why did you block me at school and insist that I take on the Mo family project and write the proposal?" Shen Jingshu pressed on, leaving him speechless. "If you think I don't understand business, then you don't need to come to me anymore."

Her expression turned completely cold, and her tone carried an undisguised warning: "That's enough for today. If you ever dare to block me at the school gate again, harass me for no reason, or force me to do anything, don't blame me for not giving any consideration to the blood ties that you yourselves have long since exhausted."

Shen Jingshu stopped in her tracks, turning halfway to the side, a faint chill lingering in her eyes. Her tone was light yet undeniably intimidating: "I didn't originally intend to push things to the extreme, but if you persist in your persistent harassment, I won't hesitate to use some methods. The Li family is currently at its peak. If I were to ask them for help, could the Shen family, already struggling and facing a huge financial deficit, really withstand a round of commercial suppression from the Li family?"

"You dare to touch the Shen family?" Shen Yifan's face turned pale, his tone filled with disbelief and fear.

"You're welcome to try and see if I dare." Shen Jingshu didn't waste any more words, leaving only this warning before striding straight toward the teaching building, decisive and without the slightest hesitation.

Shen Yifan stood frozen in the tree-lined path, watching her resolute figure disappear into the distance. A cold sweat inexplicably broke out on his back, and a huge sense of panic and astonishment surged within him.

He originally thought that only he and Shen Xinyi were reborn with memories of their past lives, and that they could easily turn the tide by seizing the initiative. He never expected that even Shen Jingshu, who was the most inconspicuous person and whom they could manipulate and control in their past life, would also be reborn.

In her past life, they wronged her, schemed against her, and cruelly crushed her last vestiges of affection for the Shen family. Given her stubborn and resolute nature in her past life, there was no way she could ever forgive them again in this life.

His original plan was to leverage Shen Jingshu's experience and connections with the Mo family from her previous life. This was the safest and risk-free shortcut to securing the cooperation, saving him the trouble of figuring things out from scratch. It was the best way to save the Shen family at present. But now this path is completely blocked. Shen Jingshu has completely stood on the opposite side of the Shen family, and even holds the Li family as a trump card that can control the Shen family.

"Fine... if this path is blocked, then we'll find another way." Shen Yifan clenched his fist, a stubborn tenacity resurfacing in his eyes. He gritted his teeth inwardly, "I was also reborn with memories of my previous life. I'm not necessarily helpless without her, Shen Jingshu. I refuse to believe that I can't find a way to connect with the Mo family on my own!"

On the other side, Shen Jingshu walked into the teaching building, her expression already calm. She knew Shen Yifan's personality better than anyone else; he was arrogant and stubborn, and wouldn't give up easily. But with the Li family as his backer and holding onto his entire past after his rebirth, she didn't need to tolerate him step by step like she had in her previous life. All she had to do was wait for Shen Yifan to run into his new wall.

Shen Jingshu's warning just now was never just a casual remark to scare Shen Yifan.

She was truly disgusted.

Shen Yifan is now like a persistent fly, popping up every now and then to bother and pester her, trying to be clever and disturb her peace time and time again, attempting to manipulate and take advantage of her.

She secretly thought to herself that if he still didn't know when to stop and continued to pester her endlessly, she might not be able to refrain from taking action.

He could either use the Li family's power to completely shatter Shen Yifan's delusions, or he could simply set up an array himself to quietly suppress the Shen family's remaining fortune, so that they would no longer have the energy to keep an eye on him and plot against him.

But just as the thought of punishment arose in her mind—

Just moments before, the sky was cloudless and clear, when suddenly a deep, rumbling thunderclap echoed from the ground.

Boom—

The thunder was clear and deafening, echoing across the entire campus.

Students on their way stopped and looked up, their faces full of confusion.

Thunder in a sunny day? What's going on?

"The sky is so clear, not even a cloud in sight. Is it going to suddenly change and rain?"

The crowd was buzzing with discussion, but Shen Jingshu looked up at the sky, her eyes instantly revealing a clear understanding.

No clouds, no rain, thunder in the clear sky—this is not a celestial anomaly, but a warning from the heavens.

She carries the blood of the Shen family, and the bond between them is deeply ingrained.

Bound by the rules of Heaven, as a blood relative of the Shen family, she absolutely cannot take the initiative to deliberately destroy or suppress her own bloodline clan using magic or external force.

Even though the entire Shen family was cold-hearted and owed her a debt of gratitude, and she harbored resentment and suffered countless grievances, the natural law of bloodline cannot be reversed.

Shen Jingshu let out a soft breath, lowered her eyes helplessly, and sighed softly in her heart.

As expected, with the constraints and entanglements of the Heavenly Dao, there were ultimately many obstacles and troubles at every turn.

You can't just easily get rid of the trouble.

It seems that the Shen family's fate is something they have to bear themselves and let nature take its course, as they gradually march towards their own destruction. It's not up to her to intervene.

Shen Jingshu's eyes flickered slightly, and a thought quickly crossed her mind.

The constraints imposed by Heaven were that she personally harmed the Shen family. But if someone else took the initiative to cause trouble, and it was all Shen Yifan's own doing, then naturally it had nothing to do with her.

When she confronted Shen Yifan earlier, she had secretly observed his face. Shen Yifan's brows were filled with an aura of impending doom, he was too greedy and eager for quick success, and he tried to take shortcuts by relying on his memories of his past life. The murderous intent in his eyes was growing stronger every day.

Thinking of this, Shen Jingshu gave a faint smile.

Even if she doesn't lift a finger, doesn't need to use any formations, and doesn't need to rely on the Li family's power to exert pressure, it won't be long before Shen Yifan pays the price for his ambition and scheming. All the bad consequences are his own doing.

Human greed is insatiable; no amount of past life memories can save someone who is determined to go their own way.

She stopped thinking about the Shen family's trivial matters, withdrew her gaze, and walked towards the classroom.

The day's classes ended smoothly. During the break, Shen Jingshu leaned against the railing in the teaching building corridor, her thoughts drifting back to her past life.

In her previous life, she saved Old Master Mo by chance. Afterwards, Old Master Mo secretly investigated and learned that she came from the Shen family.

Grateful for the life-saving grace, and with the impressive collaboration proposal she had worked on all night, the Mo Group overruled objections and chose Shen's Group over many other powerful corporations.

This opportunity to rewrite the fate of the Shen family was ultimately obtained by her through gratitude, but in the end it became a stepping stone for Shen Yifan to achieve success.
